The Mizukage's hat.

The Mizukage (水影, Literally meaning: Water Shadow) is the leader of Kirigakure. There have been five official Mizukage, though only three have been seen in the series thus far. Their word holds sway over all political and military issues that present themselves regarding Kirigakure and its inhabitants. The Mizukage's building is the widest and largest landmark in Kirigakure, bearing the kanji for Mizu (水, Literally meaning: Water) on it.
